Today I think I might move things around in my office. I don't know if there's much point, since I'll be moving to another room kinda soonish...but my desk is RIGHT in front of the window and we haven't insulated around it yet so I get a really cold draft, lol. Kinda chilly. I do like being right in front of the window, though, because it looks out over the road out front and so I can see what's going on in the "neighborhood" (lol, which is usually nothing) - and bonus, in the morning I don't have to go outside to make sure Mason's OK getting on the bus...I just sit at my desk and watch out my window, lol.

Anyway, moving stuff around in my room will be a HUGE job. I've got stacks and stacks of books, magazines, stuff to alter...plus you know, the usual mess on the desk, lol. It's a big job! But at the same time...it gives me a reason to get this all cleaned up and reorganized!

(LOL, can you tell I'm undecided about whether to do this or not?)

LOL, Bree. I think I'd like having the window there. But I wouldn't like the chilliness. Was that a ton of help???

Eh, just keep it where it is and save yourself the trouble and put on an extra layer! Can you see I'm lazy?

I'm already wearing a long sleeve shirt and sweater (zipped up and hood up), sweat pants, and slippers. I'm still cold. Next thing I break out is the mitts, toque, scarf...perhaps snowpants and my winter coat...

That WOULD be the easier thing to do. But you see, the insulation is in an aerosol type can thingie (well not really aerosol, but you know the compressed air canisters? like that, but with foaming insulation in it) and I'm too afraid to spray it near my computer because what if a droplet flies into my computer fan or something and then expands?! LOL!

DH figures this is an irrational fear. But I just can't take the risk.

What about just buying a little electric space heater instead.... I hate cleaning/organizing - can you tell?

Good luck with the move!

Cover the computer desk with an old sheet or drop cloth.
Not only are you cold, but you're wasting money on your heating bills!

OK, OK...I'm off to try to figure out where DH may have put the can of insulation...

I just moved my living room and dining room/office around last month. My computer had been by the dining room window for 2 years, never moved it once we set it up. But I also didn't want to deal with the chills from the window this winter. lol Plus we got new (to us anyways) living room furniture, so I needed a change. hehee

Have fun Bree! hehee
